Ask Evie: My Sister Has Been Making Hurtful Comments About My Weight Since I Got Pregnant

READER’S QUESTION: “Dear Evie, My relationship with my sister has been very strained since I got pregnant. All through my pregnancy, she talked about how giving birth will ‘destroy’ my body and how she wouldn’t want to ‘ruin’ her body by giving birth. She would also brag about her weight loss and confidence to me throughout my pregnancy. Even after I had my baby, she has been making comments about my postpartum body, calling me ‘bigger’ and trying to give me clothes that are several sizes bigger than what I fit.
